Reddit mentions: The best frozen breakfast foods

First off, good on you for signing up for a HM as your first race! Woo! That's ambitious!

I know it's scary to not have run the full amount of distance, but trust me, you'll get through it. Just stick with your training until the end and trust yourself to put one foot in front of the other.

/r/running is a good resource for anything and everything HM too, including race day tips. I'm following Hal Higdon's Novice 2 HM plan loosely for my second HM this September and I'm happy with it.

As to "whip back into it" I would start out small: something doable and better than nothing. I ran 2 miles yesterday (just 2!) but feel better about everything knowing that I ran at all. Don't skip a single long run until your race.

It's OK to be nervous; it's part of the race. Everyone else around you is feeling the same way. The energy is awesome and it will get you through.

Good luck! :)

Oh, and what /u/vegetablesactivated said is very important: no new gear, not even your socks. It's important to feel very comfortable with your gear and goo. I eat Honey Stingers and love them; I don't actually really like goo.

I'm planning for a hiking/backpacking trip, so looking for the same low volume, low weight, high calorie solutions. Why do all dehydrated camp meals with rice seem to have wheat based soy sauce in them?

I'm thinking of bringing small packs of GF instant oatmeal (this stuff tastes pretty decent and comes in little pre-portioned bags) and powdered milk.

1 cup per day of instant rice and small btls of sesame oil, GF soy sauce and maybe some furikake

rice noodles, the kind that only need to be soaked in hot water

either powdered egg or some fresh eggs in a holder (eggs should stay fresh for at least 2 weeks without refrigeration, I'm just worried about them cracking.)

a few dehydrated camping meals for convenience and weight sake

peanut butter, for calories, fat and to make peanut sauce with the soy sauce and sesame oil

foil packs of tuna and any other fish or meat I can find that doesn't come in a can (I don't want to have to carry empty cans that smell of food for days, pouches can at least be rolled up and sealed in a ziploc)

I have a dehydrator, so I'll make my own dried veggies (some ground into a powder for a soup base), jerky, and fruit based treats (a really tasty and high energy one is bananas blended with honey and lemon juice, then stir in sesame seeds or a mix of seeds and spread out like fruit leather to dry), as well as some basic dried fruits (for trail purposes, I dry my fruits extra long, if they get to hard to chew, I can plump them in a bit of water. Makes them very easy to carry, as opposed to that big bag of commercial raisins that seem to weigh more with every step.) I'm going to experiment with some dried seed crackers this summer too, they aren't the best texture or taste but will be a good delivery system for peanut butter and tuna

I haven't looked too closely into TVP to find a GF brand, but it's super lightweight and high protein and most brands don't need much in the way of cooking, so I think it'll make a good spoil free protein source

You can buy powdered butter, I've never had it, not sure how good it is, and I'm not sure if I want to invest in what looks to be a 10 year supply, but it's an option

At Costco, I get a 4-pack of EVOL Ham & Egg Breakfast bowl for $10. That breaks down to $2.50 a meal.

Costco does not sell online, but here is a link to the bowl on Amazon:

I'm not a keto person, but I do keep a very close eye on my carbs, with a max of 30 carbs breakfast, 45 lunch, 60 dinner. At 21 carbs in this bowl, plus some healthy greens, it has been working out great.

I also keep this on hand:

32 pack is $27 at Costco. Thats about $0.84 a drink and is 22 carbs. Works great for those days where I have to get out the door fast and don't want to skip a meal.

I very much like the Honey Stinger Waffle. Several flavours to choose from :)

Oooh, where'd you get the recipe? And do you know the macros for them? I sometimes have Mikey's Muffins which have 7 g fat, 5 g protein, and only 1 net carb. I'd love to make my own.

Lately these bad boys. They fit well in a jersey pocket and they're delicious!

My wife likes the caramel GU: https://smile.amazon.com/GU-Original-Nutrition-Energy-Caramel/dp/B00DP6ZWWC

I prefer Honey stinger: https://smile.amazon.com/Honey-Stinger-Organic-Waffle-Packaging/dp/B004F1LNDI

Waffles are definitely the way to go:

If you like those these are very similar: Honey Stinger

I checked on Amazon and a 24 family pack of blueberry Eggo waffles weights 839g. Certainly possible to eat that in one sitting, I don't know if you can do that tho.

One thing that crossed my mind is that they might dry your mouth out, so that it becomes impossible to swallow them. I have no experience with them, but if you are allowed to drink in between that shouldn't be a problem.

time for meal prep: boil water and run the microwave while you get dressed -> 0 minutes

Neither will go bad based on your stated consumption rate, and the total cost of your daily feast will be less than the tip you refuse to pay your server.

PS since it went completely over your head, I was calling out your irrelevant point about the higher cost of higher quality produce because you eat empty calorie trash.
